Heh. There are others here who probably know more than I do. I know only
that Linford was involved with Servant (touring, I think, but not recording,
afaik). Servant, of course, was a pretty major Christian band in the
early/mid 80's, and in fact Owen Brock (who founded Servant) is a name that
still pops up in the OTR liner notes. I don't recall if Owen's name is
anywhere on the FFR notes, but I'm thinking it is.

Also, Linford played bass on World Theatre's eponymous record (which is a
fabulous record and I highly recommend tracking down a copy of it).  World
Theatre wasn't a major player in the Christian music scene, but they were
certainly a "Christian" band (and one of the better ones, at that).  After
one record, World Theatre more or less morphed into another band called
Human Condition (which I don't think Linford was involved in, but I could be
wrong).

That's really all I know.  Anyone have any additional info?
